mulled wine - glasses or mugs?

[littleweed]

does it go in glasses because it's wine, or mugs because it's warm? you'd think I 'd ahve better things to worry about........

glass mugs

Well we had it in mugs at the frankfurt xmas market in town.

We generally put it in mugs last night (had neighbours 'around). WE don't have that many glasses, and One of the glasses I used got very hot!

If you're doing it in glasses, put in a metal spoon as well, as this will absorb some of the heat, just in case the glasses can't tolerate hot liquids for a long time.

latte / coffee glass mugs?

or just plain old mugs really!

CC - I went to a christmas market in Munich once! Was really beautiful, set off my that fabulous town hall building, and we drank mulled wine out of mugs which were included in the price! Absolutely fab!

That sounds lovely Catbert

We love going to the Frankfurt market every year but there have been rumours this year that Brum aren't going to do it again

Dp would love to go to the munich one.

Irish coffee glasses? Or you can get proper mulled wine mugs which consist of a glass insert slid into a silver 'holder' with handle.

I only know this because I'm an ex-pub landlady btw, NOT because I'd otherwise be rushing out to purchase the perfect mulled wine vessel! But I think Past Times might do them if you want to splash out.
